And So, The Next Chapter Begins

I couldn't help but notice these dramatic April skies whilst getting ready for work yesterday morning. It looked so beautiful that I just had to take a photograph, before it disappeared.

Yesterday was the last day I had to go to work before an amazing three weeks off. Over the next 21 days Me and Pete are travelling to Portsmouth, having our hen and stag parties, getting married and going on an incredible honeymoon. We will be returning to Spurn Point as Mr and Mrs Hanscombe, and will be ready to begin the next chapter of our lives as husband and wife!

Easter on Spurn Point

Over the past week we have had some very low and high tides on Spurn Point. The road has been at risk of being washed away, but luckily it hasn't been damaged this time around. It did get a nice thick layer of sand, but at least it has been driveable!

This picture was taken whilst I was on my way to work (7am).

The kids totally confused about where the eggs could be!

Here Dave is explaining the rules of the next game. Basically, there is a box of hard boiled eggs, with one that is not cooked. Everyone has to roll their egg down the little hill and if it hasn't cracked they must 'smash' it against their head! Only what everyone wasn't told is that the 'hard boiled eggs' weren't very hard boiled after all. I am definately glad that I had the job of holding the camera for this one.

Yes it turned out to be a very messy game, and even ended with a water fight.

First BBQ of 2012

With the warm weather March bought, we decided to have our first Spurn BBQ of the year. The men were asked to bring the benches out, and we gave them a good clean. Then Pete and Max were given the task of putting together our cheap Tesco bbq (the one we bought when we moved here, and have never used).

There's something about fire that makes a bbq a 'mans' job!

And something about a bbq that makes us women want to have 'a couple of drinks' :)

And something about those 'couple of drinks' that inevitably end in the adults on the kids toys!
